Plasma's roadmap for 2026 includes enabling staking with estimated rewards of 5% APY, along with cross-chain bridges to Bitcoin to expand its role in hybrid DeFi ecosystems. These upgrades, planned for Q1, will introduce XPL token delegation, strengthening network security and attracting BTC liquidity through the low-cost pBTC Bridge. Additionally, the launch of Plasma One Neobank will integrate traditional fintech features such as cards and payroll with on-chain payments, merging web3 finance with the real world. This multifaceted approach aims to capture stablecoin flows in remittances and commerce, positioning Plasma as a trusted settlement layer in a market projected to experience exponential growth in institutional adoption.
